NZ - South Island Trip Day 7 (10 Mar)

Dunedin

First thing in the morning, went and git the tickets for the Taieri Gorge train trip for 2:30pm. Then headed to Larnach Castle. I don't really think that its a castle, in fact it was kinda small...

Then we went and check out the tours for Penguin Place, Royal Albatross Centre and Nature Wonders.

For the Taieri Gorge train trip, we took the 77 km round trip to Pukerangi. Its an award-winning journey through history and spectacular scenery that is otherwise inaccessible to the public.

Dunedin was pouring when we ended our journey at 6:30 pm :( We packed dinner and made our way back to our motel two blocks away from the train station in the rain.
